El Ojo del Lago - January2014

Page 61

Dear Sir: With the holidays upon us, I would like to share a personal experience about drinking and driving. This is a first for me, as I normally don’t preach to others. Well, two days ago I was out for an evening with friends and had several cocktails followed by some rather nice red wine. Feeling jolly I still had the sense to know that I may be slightly over the limit. That’s when I did something that I’ve never done before - I took a cab home. Sure enough on the

way home, there was a police road block, but since it was a cab they waved it past and I arrived home safely without incident. This was a real surprise as I had never driven a cab before. I don’t know where I got it and now that it’s in my driveway, I don’t know what to do with it. Insincerely, Alfred E. Newman Riberas de Pilar (PS: Please do not try to reach me because realizing what I have done, I find comfort in sleeping some 20 hours per day.)
